The City of Leduc is under Measure A of its water demand measures, temporarily banning non-essential potable water use for municipal operations. Warm weather and dry conditions are causing increased demand on the system; the City is expected to remain under Measure A until it rains. There is no immediate impact to residents or how they use water.
The City of Leduc is reducing its non-essential water use by restricting:
- Hydrant flushing
- Sewer flushing
- Street cleaning
- Firefighting training
- Fleet vehicle washing – includes transit buses
Residents are always encouraged to conserve water by:
- Limiting use of the dishwasher and washing machine until necessary
- Reducing shower times and keeping baths shallow
- Limiting humidifiers and ice machines usage
- Turning off water taps when not in use
Note: The spray park in Leduc uses recirculated water and will continue to operate.
